John Aravosis (DC), AmericaBlog.com: As you may recall, the Republicans in Congress want to amend the US Constitution with anti-gay language that would supposedly "ban gay marriage." In fact, the amendment would likely rescind state and local laws that outlaw job discrimination against gays and provide gay partners with health benefits, and it would likely rescind laws protecting unmarried women from things such as being beaten to a bloody pulp by their boyfriends (this actually happened in Ohio, where the state court found that the local anti-gay-marriage amendment invalidated state laws covering the domestic abuse of unmarried women). Anyway, who is on the very short list of Senators introducing the "Marriage Protection Amendment" in the Senate? Why none other than foot-tapping Senator Larry Craig (R-ID), and whore-mongering Senator David Vitter (R-LA). You'll recall that the very-married Larry Craig was caught tapping his foot alongside a really hot male cop in an airport bathroom. And the very-married and very-family-values-proclaiming David Vitter, we now know, has repeatedly frequented female hookers.So there you have it. Two of the Republicans' biggest marriage hypocrites - Larry Craig, who was accused of trying to have sex with a man (who was not his wife) in a bathroom, and David Vitter who has been repeatedly accused of frequenting hookers (who also were not his wife) - want to amend the Constitution to "protect" marriage.
Perhaps you all should call Larry Craig's and David Vitter's offices and ask them the following:
- Senator Larry Craig, PH: 202-224-2752. Message: Can a married guy give handjobs and blowjobs to other guys in bathrooms and still defend heterosexual marriage?
- Senator David Vitter, PH: (202) 224-4623. Message: How many whores does a married guy have to sleep with before he's no longer defending marriage? And does the price of the whore matter?
Oh, and please do report back in the comments how your phone calls went with Craig's and Vitter's offices.
